There are a few choose your own adventure creation platforms out there, but most of them aren't very user friendly, especially for people who don't think like coders. We wanted to make a site that is user friendly for people who want some of the great features available on sites like Twine, but don't want to learn special syntax in order to use them. Our site allows users to simply click, drag and type, without the fuss of adding special brackets and other symbols. We also wanted a pretty, clean, professional and above all mobile friendly layout for our site to further differentiate our product from other similar products. The image above is taken from the mobile view of the page edit view.
The dropdown menu next to each link gives the option to connect to any page in the story except the current page, with an option to create new blank pages at the top. New pages are named after the link they came from by default.
